What does this setting do?
The default of 168 hours is one week. That is how long a player waits before renaming their character again.
The point is not bureaucracy but recognisability: on PvP servers a name is the only identity a player has. Anyone renaming after every conflict escapes their own history — which is exactly what scammers and troublemakers rely on.
